Two opportunities!

Two opportunities.

E-mail ESSE if you would like the attachments associated with the first:

The posters for the $100,000 Go Green Challenge have finally arrived from head office and were mailed out this morning. You should be receiving them by the end of the week (if you requested them). Please email me to confirm once you have in fact received the shipment. The posters were packed in tight, so you can unravel the cardboard tube to get them out.

I have attached the information package including the final rules and regulations for the contest, the PowerPoint slide for presentations and the e-flyer for students. Sorry for the delay! Please confirm that you have received this email and that you can open all the attachments. I`ve sent the files in different formats (there are only 3 different files in total), as some people have been finding it difficult to open the documents. Please note that you will need to download Adobe Acrobat in order to open PDF files. Please let me know if you have any questions or comments.

Sincerely,

"I'm looking for students to help staff two displays at the Royal Agricultural Winter Fair (www.royalfair.org) which runs from Friday November 7 to Sunday November 16 at Exhibition Place in Toronto.

The two displays are within the Agri-Food Innovation exhibit in Hall B. One is a "Welcome Centre" where we'll be showing videos and handing out information that talks about the new face of agriculture. We're showing how agriculture is providing answers to many of society's issues including food safety, environment, bioproducts, energy, and local foods.

The other is to do with the Greenbelt (www.ourgreenbelt.ca) and we're building a miniature Greenbelt which will feature various activities including a virtual pond (walk in it and fish swim away from your feet), bike racing, videos and more. The Greenbelt is a major sponsor of the Royal, so this is a large and important display.

Staffing runs in two shifts - from 9 am to 3 pm, and from 3 pm to 9 pm daily. The Fair is open from 9 am to 9 pm.
The job pays $11/hour and admission and parking passes are provided. Unfortunately we cannot help with the mileage and transportation to Toronto though.

If you're interested in experiencing the Fair, and making some pocket change, please contact me as soon as possible.

Thanks,
